hand, and then sat down in the
hair beside his bed. I was hardl

asked him how it seemed to him. He
replie'fl, "It's not as strong as it was
this - afternoon, but it . is very good. "1
said, "He seems to be 'doing ray
"Yes," he answered, and passed out. ,
He was not-in the room more than

hold of his hand. I was on the left'',

marked, "You have had a nice and

'Oh! Swaim, this terrible •pain,",
placing his right hand on his breast
about over the region of the heart
I asked him if I could do anythin a ;
for him. He said, "Some water." I .
went to the other side of the room
and poured about an ounce and a
half of Poland water into a glass
and gave hiin it to drink. He took'
the glass in his hand, I raising his
head as usual, and he drank the wa
ter very naturally. I then handed
the glass to] the colored man Daniel,
who came in during the time I was
Tettincr the water. - .
Afterwards I took al •napkin and
wiped hia' forehead, as he usually,
prespired on awakening. He then'
aid, "Oh Swaim, this terrible pain !!
Press your band mat." I laid my
hand on his 'chest. then threw
both hands up to the side - and about,
fi aline with bis head and exclaim- .
"OhlSwaim,can't you stop'this?''
nd again, "Oh! Swaim!" I then saw
him looking at me with a staring ex
pressiOn. I asked him if he was
-tittering much. pairi. Redeiving no
nswer I repeated the queOtion with
EMI
like result. I then concluded that;
-
he was either dying or h a

was at thefdoor, to tell Dr. Bliss andl
Mrs. Garfield to come immediately!.
and_ glanced at the small clock hang-1
ing on the chandelier nearly over the;
foot of his bed and Saw that it waSi
ten minutes past ten o'clock.
Dr. Bliss came in 'within two on
three minutes. I told Daniel tobring
the lighted candle, which. habitually

When the light shone full in his face
I saw that he was dying." When Dr.
Bliss came in a moment after, I said,;
'Doctor, have you..,any stimulants
Ile seems to be '.dying." :Ile took
hold of his wrists as if feeling of his;
pulse, and said, "Yes, he is dying.":
I then said to Daniel, "Run . and;
